Be honest /tv/ how excited are you for this show? What are your expectations?
grim
From left to right: Neville Longbottom, Ron Weasley, Hermione Granger, Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, Parvati Patil, Dean Thomas
>>220770755Every single one of these kids deserved to be bullied into suicide
no
>>220770755Why is Malfoy so tall compared to everyone else?
>>220770755There aren't many pics of Leo Earley (Seamus) but from the clips on Youtube he looks like he's going to be pretty good. Just looks a lil younger than the main cast.
Fuck off you mod protected gaypedo creepyou think we dont have people on the inside watching you cry to your fellow homosexuals that have mod powers
>>220771091It's pretty obvious based on his age and how much he's grown from when they made Lord of the Flies.Hopefully the rest of the principal cast catch up.
>>220770755why do they look so unsophisticated compared to the original cast?
>>220771120Harry and Ron are supposed to be tall in the books. If Harry’s and Ron’s actors end up being short (just like Daniel and Rupert were), it will once again be a failure of character accuracy.
>>220771232>it will once again be a failure of character accuracy.Whilst I appreciate and defer to anons waaaay superior knowledge of the source material I think there are bigger issues with regards character accuracy.Harry Potter fans obsessed over the movies and were at pains to point out the differences. The production company are committed to keeping the school built to educate the kids for a minimum of eight years so lord knows that generation of fans and a whole new generation of fans are going to wear their keyboards out complaining about one thing or another.I'm just going to watch and hopefully enjoy
>>220770755On the one hand, jeet Granger sucks, but on the other hand, nu-Ginny is god tier.
>>220771153probably going for a very young demographic in hopes it hooks them on the franchise so they have someone to sell to in the coming decades
>>220771337NuGinny quit the show last week. They've yet to announce a replacement.
wtf they made dean a nigger?
I am not very excited. I never read the books and only liked Luna from the movies.
why is malfoy a foot taller than the otherswhy is parvati the same color as hermione
>>220770755I wonder how much they're planning on actually changing?Will harry end up with Luna till the final season only to get with Ron's sister again?
>>220771312The most important question is will they ditch the robes again after three films
>>220771402Malfoy definitely isn't calling Hermione a filty mudblood. And they're gonna have to change the bullying scenes in the flashback to Snape vs James Potter.
>>220771431If the rumors that the production cost is around $1BN per book adaptation I wouldn't be shocked if they alter the Uniform slightly every year so they can bring out new merchandise.

>>220771381>why is malfoy a foot taller than the othersThe actor is two years older than the other kids (just like Tom Felton was but Felton was short for his age so noone noticed back then).>why is parvati the same color as hermioneApparently Hermione's actress is half Indian, that's why.
>>220770755>What are your expectations?It'll be shit but survive because of the name.
>>220770755Confident I will never see it, I do look forward to the future /tv/ threads however.
>>220770755On a scale of 1-10, my excitement level is negative 4. Because Harry Potter is for girls.
>>220771353Because he's also described as a black person in the book, Rowling drew him as black but gave him a different name at first.>>220771658>Harry Potter is for girls.Then why /tv/ has been talking about it for years? How many girls post here?
>>220770755Why do they look so damn young compared to the first movie?
>>220771731>How many girls post here?That's a loaded question. We have to establish first if anon considers girls with feminine penises to be real girls?
>>220771771>771771Huh. Last six digits are 771 repeating. 771 771.
>>220771731>How many girls post here?I guess a lot if they're talking about Harry Potter. I've never met a dude into Harry Potter. If they exist they're obviously fags.
>>220771878If a dude is into "into" Harry Potter he's more of a shotafag than your regularly run of the mill homosexual.
>>220771615It's literally HBO anon 50/50 chance they'll throw in random nude scenes & the adults who let their kids watch will get the show cancelled mid season
>>220771923I don't know what a "shotafag" is, but I assume they're gay, too.
>>220771731>Then why /tv/ has been talking about it for years? How many girls post here?No just shills and homo pedos. The former was confirmed by the hack last year and the latter over the last few months through tricklinks
>>220770755girl on the right looks like the Katie Bell actress, huh
>>220771941How strict are planning regs in England? HBO have committed to building a school that by all accounts will be better than almost any school normal kids get into in England - and more importantly - keep it running for eight years.If the series bombs can they just stop production and hand the school over to the Government to run?
>>220770755No, I'm not 8 years old anymore.
>>220771731>How many girls post here?Those "oversensitive" anons who pretends they care about the safety of the kids and keep calling everyone a pedo, are definitely women and they probably post in the /got/hotd/akotsk/ generals too. Those women are got/hotd/akotsk fans and hate it when other fandoms get more attention than theirs. Harry Potter is going to surpass Game of Thrones as HBO’s biggest show and those women hate that, so they always report Harry Potter threads and accuse all the anons who post in those threads of being pedos. The /got/hotd/akotsk/ generals have many femanons unironically and they admitted it countless times, I wouldn't be surprised if they post here too but only to complain and report everyone.
>>220770755The trailer did not look very magical. Kinda just looked like everything else
Sex with Parvati
>>220772086Extremely strict. Easily triple the paperwork and amount of approvals required in the US except their code requirements are somehow looser.
>>220772122You sound like a massive fucking faggot and I can't wait to find out who you are >>220766469
>>220770755>Harry Pooter And The Jeets Log
>>220772171Interesting. So if HBO pull the plug and the 100s of kids that school has been built to educate go away I guess they just hand it over to the local government and they get a free school.
>>220772224Thanks for confirming my theory about your gender. Keep stalking the tv archives, you're not special, everyone can do this, girl. You are at every thread about Harry Potter and all you do is threatening everyone. Literally, move on and focus on your own fandom instead. HOTD will start in a few months, keep your energy for the pathetic generals.
>>220771731>Then why /tv/ has been talking about it for years? How many girls post here?Oversocialized nonwhite millennial manchildren from /v/ and genuine faggots(also unsurprisingly from /v/)
>>220772124It was literally just teasing it anon
>>220770755Who cares? We know it's going to suck, why are you pretending there's any reason to give a shit?
>>220771352You're fucking joking right?
>>220771352>>220772864It's true. FUCK.>cast a 10/10 red head.>fire her immediately.
>>220772903Source that sounds made up
>>220772304>ESL trannykekKEK
>>220773058Literally google. Though the official story is she had to step away due to unforseen circumstances. (She was too hot)
>>220770755Fucking grim. Is not even ugly, woke, silly or offensive, is grim.
>>220773170>She was too pretty*She can't be hot until the stroke of midnight on her 18th birthday, or else.
>>220773276Fine
>>220773170Maybe she got covid anon
>>220771767I think you need to rewatch the original films anon,the main cast literally went from children to preteen from Philosopher Stone to Chambers of Secrets
>>220770755will there be gays in it? Crusting?
>>220771731>Because he's also described as a black person in the bookHe decibed as having sallow skin you idiot"(of a person's face or complexion) of an unhealthy yellow or pale brown colour:"his skin was sallow and pitted""sallow-faced addicts""
>>220770755>You better say things 'bout my show, mate. Or I'm going to bop you one.
>>220774141Just the faggots that the janny protects ITT
>>220773244>ugly But it looks kino?
>>220770755Why does it look like that one indian movie?
>>220771153Just wait for the 1st episode m8
>>220773170I already wanked to her and will do so again
>>220770755Is Harry played by a little transgender boy?
>>220775189It's a boy anon
>>220771037lefty
>>220770755I never even finished the original movies. The first few had charm but I gave up after 3 or 4
>>220775938That's because the original director left & they completely lost the charm of the settings
Why does this creepy gay pedo keep samefagging so much?
>>220770755I tend not to get excited about upcoming films or series. Last time I was was Twin Peaks: The Return. Because I knew there'd be a payoff.Not the case here. Might watch it for curiosity's sake. Read the books when the last one released because I was just basically just done with my final exams in school and had nothing better to do with my time, so I wouldn't consider myself a big fan of the material in the first place.
>>220770755They look like normal kids, not necessarily actors who can act.
>>220776169>They look like normal kidsYeah, I think that's the idea, anon.
>>220770755They better match if not top the casting for Luna.
>>220771969>not speaking a word of nipponeseAt least pretend you're not on reddit. shota just means little boy you lazy English fuck
>>220771878Actual scientific data (2023), check.>Harry Potter fans are 55% male (only 45% of nonfans are male)Biggest differences from gen pop>Harry Potter fans are 52% millennial (only 20% of nonfans are)>Harry Potter fans are 24% Hispanic (only 12% of nonfans are)>Harry Potter fans: 21% are in the $100,000+ household income bracket (only 12% of nonfans are)>Harry Potter fans are 55% Democratic Party (only 37% of nonfans are)https://intel.morningconsult.com/mc-content/instant-intel/harry-potter-fandom-demographics
>>220770827Grave even.
>>220770755the cast sucks
If it was original story i'd watch it, but apparently it's just tv show version of the movies so meh
>>220770755Why does Hogwart discriminate against Asians?
>>220771091Looksmaxxer on steroids since 10.
>>220777037What? Their whole marketing spiel is that it's more book faithful than the movies.
>>220770907Neville, Harry and Ron are absolutely soicucks. Parvati (why’s she here so early?) and Hermione are taking the photo seriously. Dean looks absolutely fucking miserable, he already wants to quit. Malfoy has serious older cousin energy, like he’s been sent to watch over the kids table. Am I excited? As excited as Dean is!
>>220771232Harry is perhaps a little tall by the end, but he’s a late bloomer. Maybe he should be 5’11-6’1? Ron should be about 6’3 or 4, by the time he’s grown up, which should be book 6 or so? By that point his height is never referenced except to note that he’s taller than any other character he’s compared to. Except Hagrid of course. Fuck I want biblically accurate Hagrid. 11’6” tall. 7’0” across the shoulders. Palms 9” across and feet 3’ long. He needs to physically struggle to fit onto the subway. When he starts knitting something the size of a circus tent on the subway, it actually should be that size. Once he’s knitting, everyone but harry needs to move to a different carriage. He can’t just look like a man with gigantism. He needs to make muggles question their reality by looking at him.
>>220771731>>220771878One reason for the massive popularity of Harry Potter in the first place was that it appeals to both genders.If the main character had been a girl, it would've been categorized as a girls' book, because boys don't read books with female main characters.
Films are always better than television. The casting does suck.
>>220772273The planning application said it was gonna be built out of portacabins ie temporary housing units, it's probably planned to be dismantled whenever filming lets out.
All of them look so generic. It's like they're made with AI. Compare them with how the OG trio looked like. The casting for this show is so mediocre.
>>220771232Harry wasn't just tall at the end, he was also athletic due to being, in fact, a top athlete in school.
>>220770755I had to check if he was indeed Neville because he's meant to have a round face. The kid playing Seamus Finnigan looks more Neville than this kid. What an absolute disaster this is gonna be.
>>220777093>t it's more book faithful than the movies.nah, despite the insane amount of content they have to adapt they said they wanted to add a lot to it.
https://youtu.be/pHc3oLeUUHk?si=SfuDO-lFEZqjkSsP&t=51my genuine reaction to this show
>>220777093You really believe them after the Snape casting? Dumbledore isn't even British/Irish.
>>220770755Harry’s skin looks weird. WTF is wrong with him?
>>220777731John Lithgow played a good Churchill in The Crown. British actors play Americans all the time, it's ok for someone to do the reverse sometimes.
>>220778215I don't care who he played. It's lazy casting. Just like with Snape.
>>220778316At least Lithgow actually is probably British genetically. Not Malian or whatever
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tx1XIm6q4r4You know remember
>>220778316I don't know what's lazy about it, the more low-effort casting decision would've been to go with any old British actor. Lithgow is not an obvious choice.
>>220778539What if they cast Radcliffe in makeup
this is your Malfoy, Crabbe and Goyle, bro
>>220773276Nah thats for cucks
>>220778638Draco isn't supposed to be taller than them, wtf were they thinking?>In the Harry Potter books, Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle are described as large, thickset, muscle-bound boys with mean expressions and long, gorilla-like arms who resemble hulking bodyguards next to Draco Malfoy. While Crabbe is heavy-built with a flat nose and Goyle has short, bristly hair, both are significantly broader, bulkier, and taller than Malfoy, particularly after their third year when they undergo massive growth spurts. This physical contrast leaves the sleek, pale Malfoy looking distinctly smaller and sharper, visually emphasizing his role as the cunning leader flanked by two towering, slow-witted thugs.
>>220778539He doesn't excite me. Imagine if they picked Gary Oldman.
>>220778755Snape is Black, so don’t expect book accuracy. Besides, they can’t predict the children’s heights, it’s a risk they had to take when casting them in those roles.
>>220778760>Imagine if they picked Gary OldmanCasting actors from the movies as different characters on the show is plain stupidity. This goes out to all those who wanted Felton as Lucius too.
>>220778881Oldman wanted to play Dumbledore though. And anything involving him automatically is good quality.
>>220778856>they can’t predict the children’s heightsYes you can. Just look at the parents' heights.
>>220778965It doesn’t always work like that. I’ve seen many people with tall parents who ended up average in height and people with short parents who ended up really tall.
>>220779147Cheating or adopted.
>>220779161How did height differences ever arose if we inherit them straight from our parents?
>>220770755They are all ugly and I can't even tell if the central one is male or female.Also ethnic porn = no thanks
>>220779456It's PREDICTable.
>>220770755Why are Dean and Parvati there, they are basically non characters. I feel like they are gonna give them giant roles that didn't exist in the books
>>220770755Honestly I don't mind black people, but indian people are hard to look at.
>>220770755He really looks like a lesbian
>>220770755>It's not wingadian leviosa it's wingadian leviosaar
What did he mean by this?
>>220774191Is dis a plappable poonah??
>>220779973ayo unc be actin mad sus
>>220779973>Why do all the kids in this show look like a pedo's dream with those delicious dick-sucking lips mmmh
>>220779787He actually looks like a normal kid. Lesbians are trying hard to look more masculine but they end up looking like little boys.
>>220770969because you were too much of a coward to?
STFU ABOUT THIS SHOW. I WANT TO KNOW LESS ABOUT IT. STFU.
>>220770827fpbp
>>220770755what a punchable little shit
>>220770755I think the parents of these children and the producers of this show should be ashamed for exposing these children to what could be an absolutely insane amount of bullying from the devils trip of chronically online neets obsessed with culture war shit, psychotic Harry Potter fans with arrested development and snarky youtubers that will use them as engagement bait.
>>220770755I wish it had less diversity. I wanna like it.
>>220781080Why is Snape black? In the books he fits the Columbine shooter kind of archetype to a T and I don’t see someone black being able to give off the angsty vibe
>>220770755The kid on far left is Neville? I always imagined Neville as an awkward chubby loser. This kid looks like a hyperactive Colin Creevey type.
>>220770755Not excited at all, expectations are for it to not even make it to book 5, hopefully not even 3.
>>220775938Because all after 3 is too fast and like 30% of book content
>>220779973This is a fucked up thing to say about a kid. Those kids need to stay away from social media and their parents or agency should keep them safe.
>>220780853the parents of child actors don't give a fuck, I remember Trevor Moore talking about how surprised he was by the ease with which they would get the parents approval for all kinds of fucked up WKUK skits
black snape
It's HBO so everything will probably be depressing and sinister without any of the whimsy
Last time I watched a TV show based on books made to right the wrongs of a previously made movie based on the books was a series of unfortunate events, and I dropped it 3 episodes in because the acting was cringe, the pacing was shit, and the film was a million times more soulful.
>>220770755 The same story with more filler and black extras
Are they gonna give Voldemort a proper motive and end goal this time?
>>220770755how did hbo go from the sopranoes and deadwood to shit like this?
she wants the draco
>>220782103>a proper motive and end goalPretty sure being afraid of death and consequently not wanting to die is a decent enough motive for chasing immortality. What more do you want?
>>220782371Game of Thrones made them realize the tasteless goycattle will eat anything up. Just download 4chanx and look at the one pleb thats been desperately keeping this thread up 15 hours now
>>220775938same. I only like the first one, actually.
>>220782432Who is she supposed to be? She’s not even one of the main characters. How many irrelevant students will get lines and screen time in this?
this series does not have any reason to exist
>>220782560The series will do what the movies failed to do.
>>220782604Bomb?
>>220782536>Who is she supposed to be?Pansy, I guess?Hard to tell since she's out of focus. badly lit and partially obscured. But it could be the actress, and it would make sense for Pansy to be close with Draco - not so much for any other girls.
>>220782671It's not Pansy. That girl looks indian, she is probably an extra. Pansy's actress is white. They are all white: Draco, Crabbe, Goyle and Pansy.
>its a /vg/niggerNow you're gonna get it
>>220782872>That girl looks indianThat girl looks severely underlit, nothing more. The terrible lighting is why the Harmione actress gets so much flack for her supposed skin colour as well.The Italian girl staring right into the camera next to her is the one who's supposed to look indian.
>>220783020Regardless of their ethnicity, those are still irrelevant characters, especially in the first book. It seems to me that HBO is planning to give lines and screen time to minor characters.
>>220783241If that is Pansy, she did have lines in the book. As did several other minor characters.And the whole premise of the HBO series is to stay closer to the books and include things the films never had the time for.
>>220770755I can't see a single aryan. Everyone there is jew. I bet even the black guy has jewish blood
>>220771091Superior pureblood genes.
>samefag is doing 20 minute intervals nowlel
>>220775024won’t be watching
>>220777093>i believe in corporate jews, in fact I trust themlol wtf unironically why?
>>220781608cool it with the antisemitism
>>220781102Papa Pissdoodoo or whatever. Not an actor lmao. Just the zestiest creepiest nog they could find as a joke. Obviously there won’t be any “angst vibes” he’s jus going to act as himself but in a robe.
>>220770755it looks like a synagogue
>>220783908harry potter trannies are some of the dumbest consoomers out there. genuinely worse than south american capeshitters
>>220783766>I can't see a single aryanwe have a few >>220782872Crabbe's actor is definitely Aryan, (he looks German to me). Draco's actor has Aryan features (blond hair and blue eyes) and there's also the boy who plays Dudley (also blue eyes with blond hair).
>>220770755Absolutely idk not dystopian not dysgenic but there’s jus some ting wrong with this image.
I know it’s not his fault but the boy playing Harry is the most lesbian looking boy I’ve ever seen
>>220784214The could have cast a cool looking kid like Radcliffe that looks like a character from a movie and not some random trans kid they found from some blue state elementary school.But they didn’t want to cast a cool looking kid, they wanted the gayest little fag possible. These are all the producers children, not actors.
>>220784108>Crabbe's actor is definitely Aryan, (he looks German to me)Danish phenotype, actually.
>>220770755Proof that everything looks better in jp manga style.
>>220784693Go back pedotranny
>>220776181Normal kids cast in iconic IP roles still need to be expressive far beyond non-acting kids. It's a job, not do-nothing in real life.
>>220774191>You're a lesbian, Harry
>>220784737>Normal kids cast in iconic IP rolesNo. The point is that good actors aren't supposed to look like actors when they're playing normal kids. They're supposed to look like normal kids.
>>220770755I already saw Harry Potter. Why do I need to see it again?
>>220784693That's 100% korea/chinaslop aesthetics
One year ago today, the cast for Harry, Ron and Hermione in the HBO Harry Potter series was officially announced and everyone was triggered and seething over the fact that Hermione isn’t white.
>>220785189What did your friends on reddit think when you told them?
>>220777135>Parvati (why’s she here so early?)They're trying to put brownies front and center
>>220785189
>>220785189Well? >>220785231You dont have to be shy, we've been keeping track of you harrypotteronhbo outsiders :)
>>220785189>the fact that Hermione isn’t white.She literally is though.
>>220785478I don't get involved in these non stop race discussions here, but this has to be bait.
>>220770755It looks visually dull
>>220785288Emma was too pretty for the role (as is the new Hermione).Rupert wasn't tall enough, but I guess it worked with them rewriting Ron as mostly the butt of the joke.Daniel always felt like a complete miscast. Made Harry come across as an autist most of the time, especially as he got older.
>>220772864No. She has been sacked.
>>220770755draco is icsh
>>220773170Sad state of affairs.
>>220785686>this has to be baitAre you American or something? Your whole framework seems warped to only consider the Nordic type "white", and think that anyone who doesn't look like Sydney Sweeney must be "mixed".She looks like a mix of Western European and Mediterranian. Both of those are considered white in Europe.
>>220785686It's part of the HBO marketing strategy. They did the same thing for that game of thrones prequel before it came out
>>220771337*was
>>220785817>unforeseen circumstancesCode for pregnancy.
>>220775187No.
>>220785779>Both of those are considered white in Europe
>>220785779The finnish are consider chinese by the rest of europe
>>220770755>What are your expectations?Political topics aside, I know it'll be poorly lit, because all modern projects are poorly lit, and you just can't have that for something like Harry Potter.So I already know it won't be good.
>>220785779I'm european and this is false, she doesn't even look like a tanned italian or spainard she just looks like a mulatto aka not white
>>220774179hey moron! anon 1 was talking about Dean Thomas not Snape. read the fucking thread
>>220781608Social Media probably should be banned to under 16 I say as an American its really disgusting. If you try to imagine people talking that way 40 years ago that is impossible. Everyone today talks like people in the 80s would only talk on massive amounts of cocaine but all the time. Kids should never be tricked into thinking its normal.>>220784693Everyone is objectively 10/10 since AI cannot do less than perfect so yeah of course it is.
>>220785779I would like to remind /tv/ faggets that if they pretend to be dumb and make statements like this eventually you will get people that seriously believe this bullshit infesting the site.
>>220785042Stand by Me, Goonies are iconic kids movies because they convey to you what it's like to be in extreme and unusual situations. Do you get that from these "normal kids" who have wizard skills living in a world of magic?
>>220785960>Greeks and Italians aren't whiteYeah, you're an American.
>>220786181>Do you get that from these "normal kids" who have wizard skills living in a world of magic?No idea, let's wait till we see them in "extreme and unusual situations" rather than in some everyday school setting.
>>220785991>I'm european>mulattoNice try. Next time don't default to South American slang.
>>220786320we use it in Italy too, next cope?

>>220786891None of the main three are supposed to be good-looking. The only attractive characters are:>Cedric Diggory: Described as "extremely handsome" with sharp, classic features. He is frequently called a "pretty boy" in the text.>Sirius Black: Described as tall and handsome with dark, lustrous hair, light eyes and a casual, easy elegance.>Fleur Delacour: Possesses almost "otherworldly" Veela beauty, with long silvery-blonde hair, deep blue eyes and a dazzling, captivating presence.>Tom Riddle (Voldemort in his youth): Exceptionally handsome and effortlessly charming, with dark hair, pale skin and dark eyes that draw people to him.>Gilderoy Lockhart: Physically striking and vain, known for his golden hair and dazzling smile.Bill Weasley: Described by the Weasley family and others as handsome and "cool," featuring long red hair and an edgy, rugged, rock-star-like style before his scars.Ginny Weasley: Described as one of the most attractive girls in her year, featuring bright brown eyes, flaming red hair and a fiery, confident personality that naturally draws many boyfriends.>Cho Chang: Often the center of romantic attention at Hogwarts, she is described as a very pretty girl with long, shiny black hair and a frequently tearful but delicate face.>Parvati and Padma Patil: The Yule Ball features both of the Patil twins being explicitly noted as the prettiest girls in their year, frequently catching the eyes of older Beauxbatons boys.>Lily Evans - Potter: Harry's mother is described as a very pretty woman with thick, dark red hair and almond-shaped bright green eyes.Those are the only characters who should be played by good-looking actors, because they are the only attractive characters according to the books.
>>220787163>The only attractive characters are:It's literally written all from Harry's perspective, anon. If characters are "described" as attractive, that just means that Harry considers them attractive.
>>220770755I will watch it because I get HBO Max for free, but I don't expect much beyond mediocrity. But Amazon Audible just gave us full cast audiobooks and they were awesome, so even if this show sucks 2026 was still a good year for HP fans.
>>220786278Good acting requires concentration (that grabs and guides the audience along), and hand-eye coordination. If you've seen enough kids movies/shows, it's easy to spot who has these 2 basics even in stills.
>>220786278IOW, being cute + normal isn't enough. Child actors used to do more.
>>220787277>it's easy to spot who has these 2 basics even in stills.No. It really is not.
>>220770755Arry sets off some uncanney valley vibes, his face is like puppet trying to be a real boy
>>220787221>all from Harry's perspectiveThey are books told in the third person by a narrator, and there are several scenes in which Harry does not appear at all, usually at the beginning of the books.
>>220787300>Child actors used to do more.Yeah, but we're past the point where society deems simulated sex between minors (à la Maladolescenza) acceptable.
>>220787246How old are you?
>>220787320>They are books told in the third person by a narratorYou're confusing the literary technique with the reader's intended viewpoint. Those do not have to match. You can have a first person narrator that relays the narrative neutrally to the reader, or (more often) you can have a third person narration that is nonetheless filtered through a character's viewpoint. Harry Potter does the latter. Another popular example is James Joyce's Ulysses (for the most part).

Draco is a minor character for someone as talented as he is, it’s wasted potential. He should look for other roles instead.

>>220787554>Draco is a minor characterDraco has a larger role than any of the adult characters other than Voldemort, Dumbledore and maybe Snape. He has a larger role than any child characters outside the main trio.
>>220787718>early 20s TwilightThat's just wrong. Twilight was aimed at teens. And at pretty much the same time as the later Harry Potter books. Those two competed for the same audience. And while they might have shared part of their audience, there certainly wasn't any moving on from one to the other with age.
>>220787666someone who types like an american ape is in no position to call others retarded
>>220787759>Twilight was aimed at teensAnd Harry Potter at children yet here you are in your mid to late 30s or 40s
>>220787779I'm sorry for the lapse, my Aryan bruder. We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children in Harry Potter movies.
>>220787722>He has a larger role than any child characters outside the main trio.NTA but explain this then: >Tom Felton had exactly 31 minutes and 45 seconds of total screen time across all 8 Harry Potter movies.Sorcerer's Stone: 4 minutes, 15 secondsChamber of Secrets: 7 minutesPrisoner of Azkaban: 4 minutesGoblet of Fire: 2 minutes, 15 secondsOrder of the Phoenix: 1 minute, 15 secondsHalf-Blood Prince: 8 minutes, 15 secondsDeathly Hallows – Part 1: 2 minutes, 15 secondsDeathly Hallows – Part 2: 2 minutes, 30 secondsDraco was barely there if you think about it.
>>220787807>And Harry Potter at childrenTrue. The first book at least. It would have been interesting had it stayed that way, but the books released over a span of almost two decades, so Rowling was forced to age the story up with its readers. Which robbed it of its whimsy and simplicity and necessitated larger and more bloated action setpieces.Arguably, it would have worked better had it continued as a school mystery series entirely targeted at children or young teens. Think Enid Blyton.
>>220787901>explain this thenLike most roles, Draco's was cut down massively for the film adaptations. Even then, 7 or 8 minutes of screentime in a 90-minute film is respectable. It's about the average of the screentime C3PO had in a Star Wars film (more in the OT, less in the prequels and sequels).
>>220787901Why not ask the same AI you asked, samefag?
>>220788027why are you seething
>>220787901And what kid characters outside of the main trio had more screentime than Malfoy?
>>220774191Why does it look like Hermione is Parvati's sister?
>>220775938Like others said, it's because Christopher Columbus left the project because he didn't like being away from his family. Also doesn't help Richard Harris's replacement for Dumbledore was an atrocious downgrade. 1 and 2 are the only soulful adaptions. 3 is okay. The rest are just bad.
>Out of all recasts for diversity, Malfoy AKA primal vilain is still blonde hair blue eyes white male
>>220785189Yeah, Hermione is a horrible miscast.

>>220775024>just wait for this story you’ve already seen and read but worse m8
It’s not like there’s any super amazing content in the books that the movies left out. Besides the woke house elf storyline that will definitely be taking up its own season, what else was there besides a few Voldemort flashbacks?
>>220791184It's a series for teens and young adults, anon. Decently written, and not entirely without merit, but still just that. Nothing about it is "super amazing". But it doesn't have to be.If diehard fans want to see certain things on screen, so what?
>>220791184Been forever since I read the books, but I do remember thinking it was dumb how they made the French school all female and the Russian school all male in the 4th movie. I also remember really enjoying the 5th book but hating the 5th movie, and finally, the battle at hogwarts was shit in the 7th movie. Do I think any of these discrepancies deserve a full series remake though? Nope.
>>220791393My point was that the narrative people keep saying that “the movie cut out so many good parts of the books” is wrong. That’s something that can be debated. You just started talking about a completely different argument about the whole thing being shit, it has nothing to do with my post.
>>2207914721st movie cut out two of the tasks for the stone, and some stuff with Hagrid's dragon.2nd and 3rd, can't think of anything on top of my head. 4th movie cuts the Elf stuff out, including Winky. Also cuts out Hermione shaving her horse teeth down. Changes the schools so they're all female/male. Skips over Hermione catching Rita and her being an Animagus. I'm sure there's more, but those stick out to me. 5th-7th I'd have to re-watch the movies because they were all bad. I'm sure there's a shit ton they excluded.
>>220791472>You just started talking about a completely different argument about the whole thing being shit, it has nothing to do with my post.No, my point was that people wanting to see certain things from the books is a valid argument, regardless of whether those things are good or bad or somewhere inbetween. It's more about a completionist mindset and faithful adaptations.
>>220791184it’s going to be completely rewritten to shut up everyone who says the villains were boring and one-dimensional
>>220792051/doubt
>>220791850The weirdest part that was left out of the movies was the explanation of what the fuck was the mirror shard that Harry suddenly had in the last movie(?) and where he saw Dumbledore's brother (based Caesar). They could've just left it out entirely. For some reason, they decided to keep the mirror as a half-measure, but cut out any explanation of how he got it or what it is. Weird. They probably filmed some stuff for it, but left it out.
>>220781122>>220777641looks more like book Neville tbqh.i just remember him being some blond little crybaby. depends how the kid plays him obviously, but he looks pretty gormless here.fuck knows why they cast Matthew Lewis. he did a solid job playing a DIFFERENT buffoon character, but it 100% wasn't Neville Longbottom from the books.
>>220790027>IT WAS ALL A DREAM, WITCHES MOVING ON MAGAZINES
>>220791184Peeves, mothafucka. Rik Mayall was a great choice but he got written out of the film (R.I.P.).>>220791850wasn't there also some shit in book 5-7 where they had to get an artefact from each of the Houses, and talk to Rotunda Ravenclaw's ghost or whatever the fuck? something they'd set up previously in the books but omitted in all the films.i can't remember how the film handled it, but it was definitely one of those>and then they just didn't need that one itemtype hand-waves.i'm worried about the opposite: they'll expand a ton of stuff at least for seasons 1-2. the books move at such a brisk pace. you can read them on a sunny afternoon. now they'll be 7+ hour (?) epics? e.g. there'll be 'the Quidditch episode' dedicated to them learning how to fly?
>>220770755Not at all honestly. If it survives until season 6 i may watch then, provided they actually adapt the book this time. Right now all i see is another high budget fantasy show that will prevent us from getting anything actually good for another half a decade.
>>220770755>how excited are you for this show?Not at all really, and I'm a huge Harry Potter nerd. Black Snape really killed it for me.
>>220787246>Amazon Audible just gave us full cast audiobooksAre those out now? That's the one thing I was actually excited about in all this.
>>220787807>And Harry Potter at children yet here you are in your mid to late 30s or 40sBecause I grew up with Harry Potter. I was the target audience at the time. Literally the same age as the actors who grew up with me, making each film relevant to my age group.
>>220770755There's going to be an inordinate amount of groid worship, race mixing, trans indoctrination, gay lifestyle pushing, and overall liberal agenda pushing in this one. They've been saving it up for a show they seem worthy, and this is the one. If you're a parent, do not let your child watch this.
>>220793207>trans indoctrination, gay lifestyle pushingYou do realize that not only are those not in the books, but there's literally no way to insert them in any way?
>>220790027Black could be anywhere
>>220793325tempted to see if the old aXXo DVDrip is still seeded. with the low resolution and horrible colour banding, this kid was genuinely invisible in that scene.
>>220793041Black Snape and ugly mystery meat Hermione killed it for me. If you're gonna make her ugly, at least keep her White. If you're gonna make her brown, at least make her attractive. They chose the worse of both worlds.
>>220794805>ugly mystery meat HermioneShe's not even remotely ugly, even if your shallow American racist mind cannot grasp that she's white.She's actually supposed to be rather ... unattractive, according to be books, though.
>>220794890me tiedamme kuka olet
>>220794890Shit bait
>>220794969Grow up.
>>220794890She's not even remotely uglyYes she is. >even if your shallow American racist mind cannot grasp that she's white.She's not White. You don't have to be American, Mexican, European or whatever else to acknowledge that>She's actually supposed to be rather ... unattractive, according to be books, though.No shit. That's why I said keep her White if they actually want to make her unattractive. You're a shill or stupid. Fuck off.
>>220795030I repeat: Grow up. You sound terribly insecure, whining how a child actress doesn't pass your imaginary racial-purity test and isn't lewdable enough for you.
>>220795048Shill. Got it. Mystery meat Hermione is ugly. Grow up and stop trying to virtue signal for a child, you pedo.
>>220795071I repeat again: Grow up. It'll do you some good.
>>220795129I don't like Black snape either but you decided to focus on the child. You're a pedo shill. Neck yourself.
>>220795169It's actually a finnish roastie
>>220795169>you decided to focus on the childErm ... yeah. Because "black Snape" is actually black (which makes no sense for the role) and "the child" is none of the things you ascribed to her. Did you expect me to challenge you on the one thing you got right? Was I supposed to say that the Snape actor wasn't black or something?Frankly, are you fucking clinically retarded?
>>220795199Mystery meat ugo
>>220795215Nobody believes your mystery meat ugly child actor is White. >are you fucking clinically retarded?Ah, so it's projection. Goodjob buddy. You made some good sentences.
>>220795245>so it's projection.I'm not the moron thinking that insulting a little girl is the same as calling a black man black.
>>220795215>Because "black Snape" is actually black (which makes no sense for the role)I disagree actually. In the books snape is a younger, uglier, and overall meaner person.Making him old, handsome, and overall a lot more respectful in the movies was silly.
>>220795514Little girl is ugly. Why do you care so much? Pedo.
>>220795581>In the books snape is a younger, uglier, and overall meaner person.Yeah, but not black. That just evokes the wrong connotations when James bullies him or the children immediately jump to the conclusion that he's behind everything bad.
>>220795715I mean Snape fucked up with Harry's mom because he basically calls her a racial slur so whatever.But I kind of agree with you which is why I don't understand why the typical upset racists are upset about it.I'd think people on here would be happy that they made the mongrel cuck character black instead of someone else.
>>220783328>the whole premise of the HBO series is to stay closer to the books and include things the films never had the time for.Thanks, shill.Keep repeating this while making all the characters nogs and jeets
>>220795900Well, that's their mission statement. Either you accept it, or you don't.Getting upset about casting choices is retarded though either way.
>>220795978Shills like you using obvious lies as an excuse for a jewed up series is what makes me angry>it's more true to the books, yeah they casted Decarlos Dejuan Brown Jr as snape, so what?
>>220796252>it's more true to the booksI have no idea whether it is or isn't. But I know that they've said that it will be. What's your problem with that statement?
